In the article Layne states that her "company is called POV because every great story should have an interesting character with a unique point of view at the center. The name is really a reminder to continue to be a fierce champion of storytellers with fresh narratives that broaden the portrayal of the human experience in ways we haven’t seen before on screen. I can count on one hand the number of Black women who have gotten this kind of infrastructure to start a company and build a legacy in this business. The Endeavor Content investment is huge and a testament to their singularity in the business.
